Ezra 4:13

Now be it known to the king that if this city is rebuilt and the walls finished , they will not pay tribute , custom , or toll , and the royal revenue will be impaired .

Furthermore, the king should know that if this city is built and its walls are restored, no more taxes, tribute or duty will be paid, and eventually the royal revenues will suffer.

Be it known now unto the king, that, if this city be builded, and the walls set up again, then will they not pay toll, tribute, and custom, and so thou shalt endamage the revenue of the kings.
